Description

This collection assembles Dominique Sportiche's most influential work on syntactic architecture, featuring both previously published essays and new contributions. The book explores fundamental questions about language structure: what defines a subject across natural languages, how case marking systems function, the relationship between case and agreement mechanisms, and the proper analysis of pronominal clitic constructions. Sportiche argues that all languages share the same core syntactic organisation, a thesis developed through systematic examination of diverse syntactic configurations. The volume combines theoretical rigour with cross-linguistic evidence to challenge conventional assumptions about language variation. Essential for linguists studying generative syntax, morphosyntax, and the universal principles governing sentence structure.

Key Features

Dominique Sportiche's collected essays on syntactic theory and clause structure published by Routledge Leading Linguists series.

Includes previously unpublished work alongside established papers on subjects, case marking, and agreement in natural languages.

Examines pronominal clitic constructions across diverse syntactic configurations and language families.

Argues for universal syntactic organisation across languages through detailed cross-linguistic analysis.

Combines generative grammar theory with empirical evidence on how languages structure subjects and morphosyntactic features.
